The article is about omnialert, not palantir, but don’t let the facts get in the way of your soapbox rant.

Same fallible systems, same end goal of mass surveillance.

That may be the case, but only one of them is actually responsible for armed police swarming this student and it wasn't Palantir. It seems very strange that you're so eager to give a free pass to the firm who actually was at fault here.

American, please, wake up. The masked border police are on the streets arresting citizens, the military is being paid as a client of the president, corruption is legal, and a mass surveillance machine unfathomable to prior dictatorships is being/has been established. You're fucked. Listen to the soapbox. It is very, very relevant. Wake up.

I'm pretty sure that some people will continue to apply the term "soapbox ranting" to all opposition against the technofascism even when victims of its false positives will be in need of coroners, not psychologists.
